This large and magnificent antique George III cruet set consists of a preserve pot, two mustard pots, two large oil/vinegar bottles and four small oil/vinegar bottles displayed on the original associated stand.
The original hobnail cut glass containers have an oval rounded form onto an oval spreading base.
Each vessel of this fine cruet set is fitted with a hallmarked plain sterling silver mount, with exception to one of the small oil bottles which has an unmarked mount.
The impressive preserve pot and mustard pots retain the original push fit domed covers, embellished with the original engraved initials ‘EMA’, and surmounted with ball style finials.
The two large oil/vinegar bottles retain the original hinged covers, and have angular thread decorated handles.
Each small bottle has a sterling silver double lipped pouring collar, with silver gilt to the uppermost surface if the lips, and fitted with the original glass stopper.
The components of this impressive Georgian set are displayed on the original hallmarked plain oval shaped stand.
